National Firearms Act NFA
June 26, 1934

President Franklin D. Roosevelt hoped this act would eliminate automatic-fire weapons like machine guns from organized crime (created by prohibition) off of America’s streets

Other firearms such as short-barreled shotguns and rifles, gun parts like silencers, as well as other “gadget-type” firearms hidden in canes and wallets were also targeted

All gun sales and gun manufacturers were inposed with a $200 tax on each firearm (This was during the Great Depression; so, that would be a tax of $2,500+ today)

All buyers were required to fill out paperwork subject to Treasury Dept approval

Law Enforcement Officers Protection Act of 1985 P

Law Enforcement Officers Protection Act of 1985

Prohibited the manufacturing, importing and selling of ammunition that can penetrate a bulletproof vest

This needs to be repealed ASAP

Here are some things to ponder

Blame 9mm, not the Police

Blame the non-active NRA members of 1985, not 'the NRA'

Be aware of who will use this knowledge against you

This isn't ALL of history, this is a social media post

This is a REMINDER not a history lesson

Use this inspiration to do your own research and add to the conversation

Don't hate the NRA because of this
Don't hate the police
Don't hate the past
Don't give up on our future

Know WE are ALWAYS tasked with defending liberty

Our informed action will create a better tomorrow

Our UNinformed actions will doom us to stay manipulated

Learn history, share it
